Maqalat: A Collection of Articles 2006 - 2013 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781521228081)

Here are some articles I wrote between the year of 2006 and 2013, some of which are professional op-eds I wrote for some prestigious international media outlets such as The Washington Post, Slate Magazine, BBC and The German News Agency (dpa), while others range from news reports to rants and blog posts.I decided to collect them all or all what I managed to collect in one place because they are starting to disappear from the Internet and elsewhere, they shed light on an era that has become history now, the era of Mubarak, life and freedoms under his rule.These articles were written originally by me in English, not in Arabic first and then translated, they tackle in my opinion different significant issues at the time they were written respectively, or just reflect on my personal opinion and personal life at a certain point of that period.I hope that you find the stories and memories embedded in the articles amusing, I believe even those avid readers of my writings will find many new stories they did not read about from me before.Now I leave you with the op-ed I wrote for the Washington Post asking the American administration to stop supporting Mubarak, the article about the assassination of late president Anwar Sadat that cost me my job, my testimony about the infamous mass sexual harassment that took place in down town Cairo in the feast of 2006, why I withdrew from the DW's BoBs awards competetion, why I refused to meet president G. W. Bush and many other hopefully interesting stories.
